Partly Facetious: Another PPP wicket falls

"Khursheed Shah has been picked up by NAB, the second opening batsman wicket to fall for the PPP."
Published September 20, 2019

"Khursheed Shah has been picked up by NAB, the second opening batsman wicket to fall for the PPP."
"What? Sharjeel Memon counts for nothing?"
"Sharjeel Memon would be like....like....like if you jail Sheikh Rashid, The Khan's Eric Trump."
"Not possible."
"Why? Hasn't he engaged in any corruption?"
"To be honest I never heard of corruption associated with him, but...but wait incompetence and flawed decisions whenever he landed a federal ministry do surface and need I add he landed ministries with Nawaz Sharif, Musharraf and now The Khan..."
"I guess it is always we, as Asif Public, do pay the price of incompetence, the number of rail accidents during The Sheikh's tenure are at a historic high, the losses are high, over staffing has been fuelled and..."
"Asif Public?"
"Really that's what caught your attention."
"To each unto his own, I say."
"How very prosaic; anyway if you don't like Asif Public how about Nawaz Public."
"Don't be facetious neither of the two represent the Pakistani public."
"How about Shah Public?"
"Neither Shah Mehmood nor Khursheed Shah reflect the public."
"How about if we adopt a female name to represent our public?"
"The Maulana will be up in arms..."
"He is in any case."
"OK so I propose Shireen public."
"Possible, the name represents a multi-coloured approach which may prompt an out of the box thinking..."
"How far out of the box are you talking about?"
"Well not that far as long as the box retains some elements if you know what I mean..."
"How about Bushra?"
"Perhaps!"
